Homo homini lupus Homo homini lupus, or in its unabridged form Homo homini lupus est, is a Latin proverb meaning ""A man is a wolf to another man,"" or more tersely ""Man is wolf to man."" It has meaning in reference to situations where people are known to have behaved in a way comparably in nature to a wolf. The wolf as a creature is thought, in this example, to have qualities of being predatory, cruel, inhuman i.e. more like an animal than civilized.

"Humanitas Humanitas is a Latin noun meaning human nature, civilization, and kindness. The Latin word ""humanitas"" corresponded to the Greek concepts of ""philanthrôpía"" (loving what makes us human) and ""paideia"" (education) which were amalgamated with a series of qualities that made up the traditional unwritten Roman code of conduct (""mos maiorum""). Cicero (106–43 BC) used ""humanitas"" in describing the formation of an ideal speaker (orator) who he believed should be educated to possess a collection of virtues of character suitable both for an active life of public service and a decent and fulfilling private life; these would include a fund"

"Ecce homo Ecce homo (""behold the man"", , ) are the Latin words used by Pontius Pilate in the Vulgate translation of John, when he presents a scourged Jesus Christ, bound and crowned with thorns, to a hostile crowd shortly before his Crucifixion. The original Greek is ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄνθρωπος (""idou ho anthropos""), and the Douay-Rheims Bible translates the phrase into English as ""Behold the Man"". The scene has been widely depicted in Christian art. A scene of the ""Ecce Homo"" is a standard component of cycles illustrating the ""Passion"" and ""Life of Christ"" in art.

"Human error has been implicated in nearly 80 percent of adverse events that occur in complex healthcare systems. The vast majority of medical errors result from faulty systems and poorly designed processes versus poor practices or incompetent practitioners. Complicated technologies, powerful drugs, intensive care, and prolonged hospital stay can contribute to medical errors. In 2000, The Institute of Medicine released ""To Err is Human,"" which asserted that the problem in medical errors is not bad people in health care—it is that good people are working in bad systems that need to be made safer.

In its usage in the early 15th century, the ""studia humanitatis"" was a course of studies that consisted of grammar, poetry, rhetoric, history, and moral philosophy, primarily derived from the study of Latin and Greek classics.

The basic principle of ""omertà"" is that it is not ""manly"" to seek aid from legally constituted authorities to settle personal grievances.

"Stupidity Stupidity is a lack of intelligence, understanding, reason, wit, or common sense. Stupidity may be innate, assumed or reactive – a defence against grief or trauma. The root word ""stupid"", which can serve as an adjective or noun, comes from the Latin verb ""stupere"", for being numb or astonished, and is related to ""stupor"". In Roman culture, the ""stupidus"" was the professional fall guy in the theatrical mimes.
